Giarabub: Bots getting stuck in corners
« on: 08-11-2012, 18:11:31 »
Hello,

I realised bots get stuck around turns and corners,as seen in the pic:


There are multiple cases all around the map.

Cheers, TurkishCommando007

I think I have a new navmesh for that map.

Will check and upload at some point.

That's great news, Ballard44. Hopefully, bots will be able to pursue and spawn when I'm at the top of the 2 storey structure where the mgs are.

This ought be a great improvement.
Thanks Ballard44!

They're getting hung up on a static object in that case (the wood plank)...It's just a drawback of the coded ai. Slight change in statics like small curb elevations can hang up a bot and eventually kill it after a struggle to regain it's route.

Took a little while, but here it is...

https://rapidshare.com/files/3864141141/giarabub_v1.zip

Back up your server.zip BEFOREHAND and then just transfer the files over.
Revert to your 'back up' if you want to play on MP or Coop servers.
If you don't know what you are doing than don't do anything or you can wreck your online play!

Let me know if there are any egregious navmesh errors and I can correct them.

If you play the Coop 32 or 64 layer you might want to think about adjusting the bot ratios for the teams.

I think Remick redid this one, but I'm not sure???

Perhaps djinn or Gavrant can answer?
